Amazon Kindle Touch In UK

At last – Amazon’s Kindle Touch is now available in the UK. This has headphone socket and speakers (see my earlier review post), Would I have bought it if it had been available before?

Maybe. Even though the keypad is awful, it’s better than not having one at all. But having said that, the touchscreen is tempting as we are all so used to using them now. Have to go and try one in the shop. The X-Ray facility looks interesting too.

The one thing I don’t like about the older Kindles is that the buttons on the side are a bit too low to make for easy reading. Minor niggle.

How to recognise the Touch – it has that little square speaker centre bottom.

BTW – at time of writing, Amazon have a sale of Kindle ebooks – 99p for lots which I have been putting off buying until now. I’m off to spend some money!
